Hey guys, just wondering for a bit of advice.

Just got approved for a 20k secured loan threw my bank (westpac) but secured means i cant buy anything like skylines or silvias or what eva :S

Purchase or refinance a used car (excludes imported second hand motor vehicles which are not imported to Australia by the manufacturer. A valuation must be available through Redbook.com.au).

it says ^^ on westpac site.

so that means i cant buy anything imported? so... no skylines no 300zx's no silvias. all the cars i like :D

a what? please explain lol.

He means, what if you wanna buy a Skyline but and its already in AUS, already at a Australian Import Dealer... Will the bank give you the OK?

Instead of importing one in from Japan yourself.

Maybe this part of the first post will answer the question.

Why not see if you can find an Australian delivered R32 GT-R? That would comply with the rules. You could get an Aussie S14 or S15 for that money, if you want a Silvia (I wouldn't spend $20K on an S13).

Your other option is to go Euro. I found a 2000 model 323Ci for $20K. It won't have the balls of a Japanese turbo, and its a slusho, but it'll have the right handling dynamics and be less of a cop magnet. If you do get a 3 Series, for god's sake get a 6 cylinder at least.

There are some Z3s going around for that price too, but those things handled like poo.

Why would you get a 20k loan for a car, when you dont know what kind of car you want? Wouldn't it have been easier to pick the car you want, then got the exact money that you needed for it and used a bank that would give you the money for the car that you wanted?

      Since winter isn't that harsh anymore in Poland, i will definetely drive it 365 days a year 😉. But if the snow hits i will try it for sure and let U know. Only swap i am planning to do is of course R34 GTR front 😍.

      Hey. Very valuable information about pitwork, I will pay attention when buying any consumable parts 🙏 As for the carpets - I got a handful of information from nengun, from which it appears that indeed the carpets for the driver's side are OEM. They are not able to show me any pictures due to the long chain of different sales entities but after I place the order, as soon as the goods arrive at the nengun warehouse from which they will send the shipment to me they can send me photos and if my purchase differs from OEM I can immediately return it / cancel the purchase. I think I will give it a try 😉. Of course i'll let you know what's what as soon as i get them P.s. I know the topic is not relevant to the thread, but both nengun and amayama have these SICK 😍 trunk room lamps available. Do you know anyone who ordered them? I need to have one in my car
